Description
Omega-3 is a polyunsaturated fatty acid which the body is unable to produce on its own, but is necessary for optimum health and wellbeing. It is important that Omega-3 is obtained on a regular basis from food or supplements in order to maintain optimum health and nutrition.
Fish oil, particularly if sourced from cold-water fish, such as salmon, mackerel and sardines (which have a higher fatty acid content and provide more Omega-3 than other fish), is a direct source of two long chain fatty acids known as EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid) and DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid).
